HP EliteBook Folio 1040 G1 F8 & brightness of the display of the F9 key does not

I recently got a new laptop at work (a few of us have) and we all have the same problem with this laptop. The function keys F8 and F9, which are labeled to control the brightness of the screen, do not work. I searched on several forums, and I can't find a solution.

  • EliteBook Folio 1040: Touchpad not working not installed driver

    Hey,.

    After you have configured my laptop (HP Elitebook Folio 1040), I can't use the touchpad scroll function.

    Of course, I tried the 'mouse' option in the Control Panel, but it seems that there is no driver installed, because I couldn't open under 'properties' of the (non-existent) synaptics tab.

    And I could not download the driver from synaptics web site (implementation of program would not install it).

    Thank you for your support!

    Hello:

    The only suggestion I can offer would be to try one of the support page for your laptop if you have not already done so.

    Hello.

    I am using HP ENVY 15-k203tx and I have NVIDIA GeForce GTX 850 M
    I recently upgraded the operating system of windows 8.1 to windows 10
    Brightness shortcut keys do not work

    All the drivers are up to date.

    PnP monitor is also activated. What should I do?

    Hello

    You laptop has Intel/Nvidia switchable graphics and search RTA the screenshot, it does not resemble the driver Intel is installed.

    Try the following.

    Download driver Intel HD Graphics on the following link and save it in your downloads folder.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp72501-73000/sp72810.exe

    Once complete, download and reinstall the Chipset driver from the link below.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp72001-72500/sp72043.exe

    When it's over, don't reboot not the laptop that you are prompted, rather open your download folder, right-click on the Intel HD Graphics package and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.

    Once this done, reboot the laptop and let Windows load completely for a few minutes before checking.

  • brightness key does not work after the upgrade to window

    I have a laptop hp 2000 - 2d28tu... yesterday, I upgraded its window 8 to 8.1 .after that the brightness is not increased or decreased by using the shortcut keys. . can someone tell me what is the reason behind it and how to solve it.

    Hello:

    You will probably need to install the graphics driver if the brightness is stuck up and the Fn keys do not work to reduce the level of brightness.

    I have published my new folio to an existing application on the app store and made public, but is not in the app store? The notify button does not always take me back to the Organizer screen producer folio.

    Hello

    first of all a new folio you post of DPS, the folio will not appear in the App Store, but in the library of the application.

    If this is not the case:

    1 make sure that you have published the folio under the same account that you used to create the Viewer.

    2 - Make sure that you have used a product ID unique for this folio

    3. If the Notify button does not work, note that this feature is available for viewers of enabled notification

    Check whether or not you have the Notification turned on in the dashboard section, otherwise it is likely that this account is not the Application role are entrusted to him... which brings back us to the point #1

  • Unknown device on EliteBook Folio 1040 G1

    Just reinstalled a Folio 1040 G1 with our custom image, all drivers/devices are installed but only one, NXP6100.

    Some articles on the net said it is supposed to be owned by NXP Semiconductors.

    NXP NearFieldProximity provider is installed, with a NXP6022 device id.

    I checked the cva for sp64291 file, only the supported devices listed are NXP6022.

    Anyone know how find/install drivers for NXP6100?

    Found my own answer:

    "Intel management engine components Driver" (in this case, sp64090) must be installed, then the device is properly recognized.

  • Folio 1040 G1: How to clear the bios password

    I got a laptop HP 1040 Folio G1. A few years ago, I would set the password of the bios on this subject.

    (I have still remember and use PW daily)

    But now, I didn't need to protect more bios password.

    I tried to delete it, but I found that - to just change it.

    NORMANLY, when to clear the bios password (eg on the desktop) the PC checks current PW (I have exceeded the stadium).

    In the box to request new password, put the ESC button. And then, the IPL has been removed.

    But on the Folio 1040 G1, it did not work.

    Pleas tell I can remove it or not (and how). Thanks to you all!

    Thank you Zincas, for your support. The last way you proposed (press the space button once) does not work.

    Instead, I find a simple way to solve.

    I have reset default of the manufacturer of the bios (early). BIOS now check the password has not appeared more!

    Thank you once again!

  • EliteBook 840 G2: Elitebook after Windows 10 Upgrade keys does not

    Hi on board,

    I'm a 840 Elitebook brand new last week with Win7 and directly upgraded to Win10 64-bit yesterday. It works although until now unless there is a big thing, some keys (FN + F9 for example) are not executed. You know, those little keys most of us use a lot to adjust the brightness or volume.

    In my case, there is the problem with FN + F8, F9 and F10 (off mic, down screen brightness and the brightness of the screen to the top). Other keys work fine (for example, volume).

    Someone at - it a specific link to a Win10 driver for this problem. I was looking on the half-hour but can't find anything (especially not the solution for Win8 proposed with the hot key driver). It might be my problem due to the fact that I'm not used to the new page from HP.

    Any help is appreciated a lot,

    Since the Switzerland

    > hey works but you have to press the FN key,.
    This special function can be changed in the BIOS.
    The point is that you can use the function key by pressing the FN key or without pressing FN - keys
    But it must be enabled in the BIOS.

    Go to + BIOS-> Advanced-> System Configuration.
    You will find the * function special keys mode.*

  • Satellite C55 - Has: F brightness key does not work

    I installed Windows 7 32 bit one (initially OS-free) satellite A-C55-1J9 phone and I can not change the brightness of the screen.
    I installed different versions of the required package value added, but none of them worked.
    Some have not even map the Fn keys correctly on my keypad to the control panel of this utility.

    The latest version I have is the vap-20130916115251. The Fn keys are in the correct order, but do not work F2 - F3.

    What can I do?

    See you soon,.

    > The Fn keys are in the correct order but F2 - F3 do not work.
    Does this mean that ONLY FN + F2 and Fn + F3 don t work but other keys?

    I think that the case that I think that this problem is not related to Windows 7 added value Package
    Have you installed the essential nVidia and the card drivers Intel graphics available for the satellite C55-A-1J9 PSCGCE series?

    450 G1 (fn + f10) brightness increase & decrease (fn + f9) suddenly stopped working yesterday. Check in the BIOS to see how the action key option is fixed to operate.

    "I also have a problem on my left button (button left control)." My up, down, right button works fine, but left button works as a backspace " This is a normal mode of operation for that particular key .
